Today I took the kids to the doctor to check Saits blood as he had gained a lot weight very fast previously. Everything is fine alhamdoulilah but he is missing iron and vitamin b12. Doctor said he is missing it because I am missing it. I said that I was fasting during Ramadan and if that might be the reason and she said I shouldn't have faster as it prevented my body to get enough nutrients to pass on to my baby.
So there are two points that made me thinking:
1. How I decided to fast
2. He is missing it because I am missing it
My reasons to fast were that I thought I needed to fast to please Allah and fulfill my duty towards Him and that I didn't want to have to makeup all the missed days later since I have still a whole month to fast from mesudys birth.
So here is my point, maybe I would have pleased Allah more if I would have made sure that my and my babies body are nurtured? Maybe I was to hard on myself and therefore effected the baby?
Which leads me to my second point, the baby is missing because I am missing!!!
Subhanallah!
That is a whole new level on its own.
If I don't care for myself, I don't care for my kids.
If I don't nurture myself, I cannot nurture my kids.
If I am not happy, how can I give happiness to my loved ones?
I'm rushing to keep the house clean while yelling at the kids.
I skip lunch to get a job done.
I don't rest while the kids sleep, again, to get a job done.
It's time to step back and to reevaluate my priorities!
BECAUSE IF I AM MISSING, THEY ARE MISSING!
